My uncle recently gave me a tournament directory for an old charity golf tournament. The back cover of the directory is signed by Bear Bryant, Shug Jordan, Arnold Palmer, Bob Hope, and Ben Hogan. The directory is in excellent condition. We don't intend to sell it, but just curious on how we can get a ballpark value on its worth, if any. We live in a rural area and there's no memorabilia shops anywhere near us. Suggestions?

Did off and on for 6 years now in north Alabama.

Thanks on Beckett I'll check that out. Not sure how value changes with so many varied signatures on same page

The context of the signatures all together minimize the value, if the golf program were from the Masters or a US Open then it would be worth more. A goofy Gump (redundant) could possibly give you the most for it due to the Bryant signature but Hogan, Palmer & Hope all together make it eclectic and desirable for a golf fan. What you could sell it for in a retail setting might be around $1,000-ish, at auction it could bring more in the right room as a golf nut might value it more.

Thanks for watching the Antiques Roadshow, next week we'll be in Tuscaloosa, Alabama and visit the University library there to see their book.

Having you considered giving your buddy a call and having him come over to take a look at it?
